was the purpose of the stone ovals at the start and end of the Alignement at Le Ménec? How important was the way the space was divided, the smaller triangles within the larger ones? Why were stones of different sizes used? ( Image 193 ) How much time was spent of planning before building began? What size was the workforce? Who directed the masses? Who had the supreme command and why? What legitimized the boss? Where did the workers and retinue sleep, spend the winter? Where are the remains of the resting places, their food, their bones? How long did the whole megalithic apparition last? If longer than one generation, what writing was used to pass on the instructions to the next generation?
    The crazy thing is that it must all have happened in one generation, or else there must have been plans which were stubbornly adhered to over many generations. It is not possible to date Gavrinis, for example, at 4000 BC but to deny the same age to the large broken menhir or the dolmen of St. Pierre. Why not? All the points lie on one sight line. How were the megalithic people supposed to set a sight on something that did not exist at the time? Consequently, the points were fixed at a specific time before building started.

    As we can see, there are huge patches on the research map and no area that could be worked within one discipline alone.

    And what about “ley lines” or “geomancy”? These are straight lines that are from 150 to several thousand kilometers long and stretch like a grid across Europe. Never heard of them?
    A straight line can be drawn on the map from Stonehenge, which lies northwest of Salisbury in England, to the Stone Age hill of Old Sarum. In its extension, this line runs directly over Salisbury Cathedral, Clearbury Ring, and Frankenbury Camp. All the places are prehistoric; Salisbury Cathedral was built on a heathenceremonial site. Now stand on the top of Old Sarum and look northward and southward. A compass illustrates the straight sight line. All points can be seen from the top of the hill. There are masses of such lines and without exception they originate in the Stone Age. The journalist Paul Devereux, who specializes in archeology, and the mathematician Robert Forrest have critically studied these lines and end their contribution in the scientific journal

with the words: “There may be a modern unwillingness to admit that ancient societies once developed activities which we do not understand. That also applies with regard to the stubborn silence of archeology about the lines in the Peruvian Andes and equally to the stubborn resistance against a thorough investigation of ley lines in Europe.” 13
    As long ago as 1870, William Henry Black (died 1872), a historian in the Public Record Office in London and member of the British Archeological Society, drew the attention of his colleagues to these curious lines: “The monuments, which we know about, mark great, geometrical lines. Lines which run across the whole of western Europe, across the British Isles and Ireland, the Hebrides, the Shetland and Orkney Islands as far as the Arctic Circle.” 14
    One of these lines runs from Denmark right across the Alps and ends precisely on the ancient Greek sacred site of Delphi. Another starts at Calais in France, runs across Mont Alix, Mont Alet, L’Allet, Anxon, Aisey, Alaise, L’Alex, Alzano, etc. as far down as Sicily. All places on the route possess a Stone Age sacred site. And the name of each location has the same root—even today.
    There is detailed literature about this phenomenon. 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 Honest people have spent their lives researching these lines. People who were, of course, aware that the curvature of the earth had to be taken into account and who just as self-evidently knew that a straight line on a map will always randomly touch several locations. What remains is the facts, the “adjusted” points on a line. What do the opinionated critics care about
